I'm not sure if its my burner, but it seems to be acting up lately when I burn. I've been using the same media for a long time now. Verbatim DVD+R 16x... and have no problems until recently. Randomly at the end of the burning process where it starts writing the lead out, it seems to go on forever and gets stuck, I abort it, but it can't even attempt to stop it, So my only choice is to force quit toast and restart my machine. Sigh, I would say maybe 2 out of every 5 burns I get this. Anyone else with similar issues that maybe can tell me exactly what the problem is. But as of now, I'm really thinking its the superdrive itself, and if so where can I get an exact replacement?

I use both the latest Toast and Popcorn, it happens randomly in both programs. So I really don't think its a problem with the app.
